Pivotal is the leader in the emerging market of electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft. We design, develop, and manufacture light eVTOL aircraft and are renowned for the BlackFly, the first light eVTOL to fly manned missions and enter the consumer market.
Efficient, compact, and simple, Pivotal vehicles are designed for a wide range of consumer, public service, and defense applications. Our distinctive tilt-aircraft architecture and scalable platform have been in development, preparing to enter the market for over 10 years. We recently announced our next-generation aircraft, the Helix, planned for general release and scalable production in 2025.
Mobility is one of the most highly-valued areas of technology investment today. This is the right company, in the right space, the right strategy, at the right time. We invite you to join our amazing team and grow with us.
As we scale our product line from ultralight to utility-class aircraft, we are seeking an experienced Electrical Engineering Manager to lead our growing team across compute, power, sensing, and propulsion electronics. This role is pivotal to the design and execution of the electrical architecture that powers, propels, and connects every part of our aircraft.
The Electrical Engineering Manager will lead the design, analysis, and integration of all aircraft electrical systems—from energy storage and distribution to compute and control electronics. You will guide a multidisciplinary team responsible for flight computers, power conversion, motor controllers, sensor networks, communication buses, and battery management systems.
This role requires deep technical expertise in electrical system design, proficiency in tools such as Altium Designer and LTspice, and strong leadership across the full product lifecycle—from concept and prototyping through DFM, pilot build, and production. You’ll collaborate closely with Systems, Firmware, and Mechanical Engineering teams to deliver reliable, lightweight, certifiable electronics that meet aerospace standards.
